The Marion Message

Due to a special worship service, today's podcast is a throwback. What do you do when your strength doesn't seem like enough? Rely on the only strength that always endures. Join Pastor Hank as he take a look at the strength of faith. Thanks for stopping by!

This week, Pastor Hank reminds us that the one true God is not distant or hidden, but personal and knowable through Jesus Christ. As Paul declared to the people of Athens, God is not made by human hands—He is the Creator who reveals Himself and invites us into relationship. This Thanksgiving season, be encouraged to draw near to the God who made you, knows you, and desires to be known by you.

This week’s message features guest speaker Dr. Bill Paige, sharing an encouraging word and powerful insight from God’s Word. Don’t miss this inspiring message from a seasoned man of faith.

Pastor Hanks expounds Isaiah 14:12-15, a passage often associated with the fall of Lucifer, but with significant spiritual application for believers today. Through this sermon, he unpacks how the ambition to ascend, to exalt self in place of God, is the root of darkness—both in cosmic and personal realms. 

In “What We Must Sow” (Hosea 9–10), Pastor Hanks warns of the bitter fruit of sin and the unshakable law of sowing and reaping. He calls us to break up our fallow ground, repent, and plant seeds of righteousness. This message is a clear reminder that today’s choices shape tomorrow’s harvest.

Hosea 8 reminds us that whatever we sow, we will also reap. Israel planted rebellion and reaped judgment, and the same principle applies in our lives today. Pastor Hank urges us to look honestly at the seeds we’re planting—our choices, habits, and priorities—and consider the harvest they will produce. This message is a call to repentance and faithfulness, so that what grows in our field brings glory to God.

Pastor Hank unpacks God’s heart for His people to come back to Him. Even in judgment, the Lord extends mercy and calls His people to true repentance, not empty rituals. This chapter reminds us that God desires steadfast love more than sacrifice and knowledge of Him more than burnt offerings. Discover what real returning to the Lord looks like and how His grace restores those who humble themselves before Him.

This week's sermon warns of the dangers of turning from God’s Word while calling us to remain steadfast in truth, mercy, and the knowledge of Him.

In this message, Bruce Crouterfield preaches from Ezra 7:9-10 on How to Seek God’s Favor. He unpacks Ezra’s devotion to God’s Word, his obedience, and his desire to teach others, showing us how we too can live in a way that pleases the Lord.

This week, our service was a special time of communion, worship, and reading God’s Word together. Because there was no sermon, we are sharing an earlier message from Pastor Hank for you to be encouraged by.

Pastor Hank unpacks Romans 8:1-11, reminding us that in Christ there is no condemnation and that the Spirit empowers us to live free from the power of sin. A clear, straightforward message of hope and transformation.

This week, Dan Holley walks us through James 4:13–16, reminding us that while it’s wise to plan for the future, our plans must ultimately be surrendered to God’s will. In a world that encourages self-made goals and personal ambition, this message calls us back to humble dependence on the Lord, who holds tomorrow in His hands.

Pastor Hank unpacks Romans 8:1-11 with clarity and conviction. Discover the life-giving truth of our freedom in Christ, the power of the Holy Spirit, and the assurance that there is no condemnation for those who belong to Him. This message is a call to live by the Spirit—not the flesh—and to walk in the truth that sets us free.

Pastor Hank unpacks the incredible love of God through the story of Hosea and Gomer. He explores how God’s faithful love reaches us even in our unfaithfulness, and how His redemption is not only merciful—but deeply personal. This sermon reminds us that God doesn’t give up on His people. Instead, He pursues, restores, and redeems with a love that transforms hearts and lives.

This week, Pastor Hank shows how God meets us in our brokenness with love and mercy. Even after Israel’s unfaithfulness, God promises restoration and hope. It’s a powerful reminder that He’s always working to bring us back and bless us again.

This week, Pastor Hank preached a powerful message in which he explored how even in the midst of the coming tribulation, we see a striking picture of God’s relentless love for His people. Though judgment is real, God’s promise to restore and call His people His own reminds us that His mercy is greater than our rebellion.
